Objective To investigate the correlation between obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS)with myocardial ischemia and arrhythmia.Methods To observe the occuring rate of premature beats and change of ST- segment,90 eases of OSAS patients were detected by the polysomnogram(PSG)and dynamic electrocardiogram at the same time.Results Total morbidity of myocardial ischemia was 32.2 % in OSAS patients,and it was 59.4 %, 15.8 %,20 % in serious,moderate and mild groups respectively.There was a statistically significant difference be- tween the three groups and the control group(P0.05).Conclusion As one of the risky factors of cardiovascular diseases,OSAS can induce myocardial ischemia and arrhythmia.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a vital therapeutic tool for hip terminal disease. Frequently, hidden blood loss exists in the postoperation, which seriously affect the postoperative rehabilitation of patients. It is urgent need to solve the problem that how to fundamentally prevent and reduce hidden blood loss after THA. Although THA has its own operational reason in blood loss, and also relates to a variety of risk factors, the mechanism of hidden blood loss is not clear. Tranexamic acid has a significant role in preventing perioperative blood loss, and the correlation of hidden blood loss and fibrinolytic mechanism would be confirm necessarily in the future,which will produce positive significance in completing the mechanism of hidden blood loss.

OBJECTIVETo systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative administration of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor on pain occurring with total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

METHODSWe electronically searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, CNKI, CBM, Wanfang data from inception to March 15, 2014 and manual searched journal of library collection to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about preoperative administration of COX-2 inhibitor on pain occurring with TKA. The methodological quality of the included RCTs was assessed and the data were extracted according to the Cochrane Handbook 5.1.0. Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.2 software.

RESULTSA total of 6 RCTs involving 228 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that: (1) Efficacy: The visual analog scale (VAS) of post-operation at 12-hour (WMD = -0.60, 95% CI -0.83 to -0.37, P < 0.000 01) and 24-hour (WMD = -0.74, 95% CI -1.29 to - 0.19, P = 0.008) was decreased when COX-2 inhibitor was used before operation. And compared with control group, experimental group decreased the modified numerical pain rating scale (MNPRS) at 24-hour (WMD = -0.50, 95% CI -0.70 to -0.30, P < 0.000 01), 48-hour (WMD = -0.55,95% CI -0.65 to -0.45,P < 0.000 01) under quiescent conditions, and the same result at 24-hour (WMD = -0.82, 95% CI -1.26 to -0.38, P <0.000 01), 48-hour (WMD = -0.71, 95% CI -0.82 to -0.60, P < 0.000 01) under active conditions. The morphine consumption postoperatively were fewer in experimental group at the first day (WMD = - 1.35, 95% CI -1.92 to -0.79, P < 0.000 01) and the second day (WMD = -1.60, 95% CI -2.68 to -0.52, P = 0.004). (2) Safety: COX-2 inhibitor could lessen the incidence of postoperative pruritus (RR = 0.35, 95% CI 0.15 to 0.84, P = 0.02), but not statistically decrease of nausea and vomiting (RR = 0.83, 95% CI 0.54 to 1.28, P = 0.40) and exhaustion (RR = 0.63, 95% CI 0.05 to 7.67, P = 0.72).

CONCLUSIONThe current evidence indicated that preoperative administration of COX-2inhibitor can effectively improve the effect of postoperative analgesia, reduce the consumption of morphine and lessen the incidence of pruritus. Due to the limited quantity of the included studies and the evidence with limited strength,further high-quality RCTs are needed to verify the aforementioned conclusion.

OBJECTIVETo study the correlation between arachidonic acid (AA) and acute red blood cells damage in rats, and to build a model with hidden blood loss in vivo, and to explore the pathological mechenism of hidden blood loss.

METHODSA total of 50 male adult Sprague-Dawley rats weighing (200 ± 20) g were randomly divided into five groups (n = 10): control group and four experimental groups. The rats in the experimental groups were given 0.5 ml different concentrations of AA dilu- ents, 5, 10, 20, 40 mmol/L respectively. The blood samples were collected from orbital venous at the beginning and 24, 48, 72 hours after administration. Then the changes of hemoglobin (Hb) ,red blood cell count (RBC), glutathione peroxidase (GSH- PX) activity, total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) activity and hydrogen peroxide (H202) in the blood samples were tested.

RESULTSSignificant hidden blood loss occurred when the concentration was 10 mmol/L in the experimental group, with the RBC and Hb sharply reduced in blood samples. The Hb and RBC were reduced in all the experimental groups and control group at 24 hours after administration, while in the experimental groups they changed more obviously. The GSH-PX activity, T-SOD activity and H₂O₂were also significantly reduced in all groups, and the changes showed significant differences. The Hb and RBC were relatively stable in the control group and the experimental groups at 48 hours after administration; while GSH-PX activity, T-SOD activity and H₂O₂were all significantly decreased, and the changes in the experimental groups were more notable.

CONCLUSIONElevated levels of AA in the blood causes oxidative stress in the red blood cells, leading to the damage of red blood cells and hemoglobin, which is responsible for hidden blood loss.

BACKGROUND: Tension headache means contraction headache or oppressive headache in bilateral occipital-cervical part or whole head. Its pathogenesy bas not been completely known yet, which may be related to many factors and the conventional therapy is drug heteropathy but the effects are different, especially on patients with chronic disease and side effects will be induced by long-time intake of drugs.OBJECTIVE: To explore the curative effect of oral negative pressure on patients with tension headache and its mechanism of ameliorating microcirculation disturbance.DESIGN: Case-control observation.SETTING: Department of Pathophysiology of Hebei North University.PARTICIPANTS: Twenty patients with tension headache in the Department of Neurology, First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from December 2001 to June 2002 including 12 females and 8 males,aged 18-28 (mean 23.4) with the disease course of 1-6 years, were randomly divided into therapeutic group and control group with 10 patients in each group.METHODS: The oral negative pressure instrument was applied. Put the negative pressure exerting equipment in the optimal position of mouth, adjusted the negative pressure to (0.05±0.01) MPa. The therapeutic time was 10 minutes each time (5 minutes for the first time) once a day with the time fixed. There were 5 days in one course and totally 3 courses. Put the negative pressure exerting equipment into mouth of patients in the control group for 10 minutes each time without exerting negative pressure. Quantitative evaluation on pain was performed with visual analogue scale (VAS)method, excellent as the VAS score decreased above 70%, effective as the VAS score decreased between 30% and 70%, invalid as the VAS score decreased below 30%. XTL- Ⅱ type microcirculation micro-television system was used to observe the changes of nailfold microcirculation by magnifing 260 times. The first row nailfold of left ring figure was checked conventionally, state of microvessel, micro-bloodstream and peri-loop were recorded and degree of microcirculatory disturbance was quantitatively analyzed according to TianNiu 's weighing integral method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The therapeutic effect after three courses and results of microcirculation observation.RESULTS: Totally 20 included patients were involved in the analysis of results. VAS scores of 7 patients in the therapeutic group decreased above 70% (70%), while no patient in the control group; VAS scores of 2 patients in the therapeutic group decreased from 70% to 30% (20%) and one patient in the control group (10%); VAS scores of one patient in therapeutic group decreased below 30% (10%) and nine patie nts in the control group (90%). Negative pressure could obviously ameliorate the microcirculation disturbance and enable it to recover from moderate before treatment to nearly normal with the total score decreased from (4.18±0.68) points to (1.97±0.41) points (P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION:Oral negative pressure has a significant curative effect on patients with tension headache. Its mechanism may relate to the improvement of microcirculation and the adjustment of nervous functional disturbance.

AIM: To investigate the characteristics and surgical management of retinal detachment (RD) after laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in myopia.METHODS: Documents of patients with RD observed in 18342 eyes (9 598 patients) who underwent LASIK were retrospectively reviewed. None of the patients had history of corneal or other diseases before LASIK and preoperative fundus examination was performed. Patients were followed for a mean of 20 months and the clinical features of the eyes which developed RD after LASIK were investigated.RESULTS: Six patients including 2 males and 4 females developed RD, and the incidence of RD after LASIK was 0.33‰. Mean pre-LASIK myopia in these 6 eyes was 9.33D.None of these eyes had prophylactic treatment history of any retinal lesions. Mean time interval between LASIK and RD development was 9.2 months. All RDs happened spontaneously and were managed with vitrectomy and other techniques.Retinal reattachment was achieved at the first retinal detachment surgery in all 6 eyes (100%) at mean follow-up of 9.3months.CONCLUSION: RD after LASIK is not common. The study suggests no cause-effect relationship between RD and LASIK procedure in myopic eyes. However, clinicians should still be aware of retinal pathology in patients undergoing LASIK.

AIM: To assess the efficacy and safety of prophylactic laser photocoagulation for retinal breaks before laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in myopic eyes.METHODS: From April 2000 to April 2004, totally 1 845 eyes ( 1 233 patients ) requesting LASIK had a fundus examination with indirect ophthalmoscopy before the surgery. They were divided into two groups according to the presence (Group 1) or absence of retinal breaks (Group 2). All patients with retinal breaks, though they were asymptomatic, underwent prophylactic laser photocoagulation to seal the breaks before LASIK.RESULTS: Patient age ranged from 18 to 43 ( 25.3±5.7) yaers old. Mean preoperative spherical equivalent refraction (PSER) was -7.44± 2.13 D (range, -1.50 to -14.50 D). Retinal breaks were identified and treated in 37eyes (2.05%) of 32 patients;1 808 eyes of 1 201 patients had no retinal breaks. No statistical difference was found in age ( P ＞0.05) or gender (P ＞0.05) between the two groups. Significant difference of PSER was noted between Group 1 (-9.41± 4.15D) and Group 2 (-7.52±3.71D) (P＜0.05). During a mean 14mo follow-up, none of the patients developed retinal detachment.CONCLUSION: The efficacy and safety of prophylactic laser photocoagulation for retinal breaks was confirmed.Retinal breaks should be identified and treated by photocoagulation in eyes before LASIK for myopia.
